When we got on the train, me and Draco looked for a compartment with Blaize, as we wanted to tell him what had happened over the summer. We were surprised but pleased to find Neville in the compartment with Blaize. 

"Harry, what are you doing here?" asked Neville.

"I could ask you the same thing."

"Over the summer I came into my creature inheritance and I figured out all the lies Dumbles told me, and that Blaize was my mate. We couldn't tell you because we knew that Dumbledore was checking letters."

"I have a very similar story, but in my case, I figured out I am not Harry Potter, but Hadrian Prince, son of Marvolo Prince, formerly Tom Riddle, and Severus Prince, formerly Severus Snape."

We then spent the next hour explaining the events of our summers to eachother, Neville excepted my invitation to be one of my Bishops, and Blaize excepted my invitation to be a Higher Pawn. When we got Regulas back, I asked him to be my other Rook, so now I just need more Higher Pawns.

"Guys, I think that we should recruit some Higher Pawns, and I have a few people in mind" everyone agreed with me, we decided to include the twins, Charlie, Bill, Luna, Seamus, Dean and Mykew. 

Once we got back from finding the others, we used this thing called Iris Messaging that Percy told us about to contact Bill, Charlie, and Mykew, so we wouldn't have to re-explain everything.

They all excepted, so we sent them back to their compartments or jobs, respectively.

Then me, Dray, Nev, and Blaize just chatted until we got to Hogwarts.

————————————————————————————————————

When we got to Hogwarts, I went to sit with Ron and Hermione with my glamours on.

"Harry, mate, we didn't see you on the train."

Hermione said in a terrible excuse for a worried voice "Yes, we were worried about you, where were you?"

"I couldn't find your compartment." I lied smoothly.

"Alright" Hermione said, slightly suspicious.

After the last first year was sorted, Dumbledore said, "This year, we will have two Defence Against the Dark Arts Professors, please welcome Professor Jackson, and Professor Di Angelo"

Percy and Nico then walked in, and the students clapped politely.

Me, the twins, and Neville then stood up. "Headmaster, we would like to be resorted." I spoke for all of us, spitting out 'Headmaster' with venom.

"I'm afraid you can't do that"

"Actually, we can" said Neville. Then the twins started speaking, Fred going first as always.

"According to Hogwarts, a History,"

"It used to be quite common"

"For students to request resortings."

 "Until you came along"

"And told everyone they couldn't do it."

"Even though it was an unchangeable rule"

"That the founders set in place."

I then finished with "So I will say it again, we request to be resorted."

Before Dumbledore could speak, the hat shouted out "I accept their request of resorting!"

With that, we walked up to the hat, with me going first. "SLYTHERIN"

Then Fred "SLYTHERIN" 

Then George "SLYTHERIN"

Last, but not least, Neville "HUFFLEPUFF"

Fred, George and Neville had all only gone to Gryffindor because their families pressured them about it.

"Now that the sorting is out of the way, I have an important announcement. The Triwizard Tournament is back." the Great Hall was suddenly filled with gasps. "For those of you who do not  know what that is, it is a tournament with three schools, Hogwarts, Beauxbaton, and Durmstrang. Each school has one champion who competes in three tasks. The winner gets awarded 1,000,000 Galleons. Due to-past circumstances- there will be an age minimum. You must be 17 to compete. The other schools arrive on the evening of October 30th. We will discuss how to enter when the competition when they arrive. Now, let the feast begin!"
